Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, divided |
1 tablespoon ground ginger |
2 teaspoons baking soda |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon black pepper |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup stick margarine or butter, softened |
3/4 cup granulated sugar, divided |
1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar |
1/4 cup molasses |
1 large egg |
1 large egg white |
cooking spray |
Directions:
1. Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups, and level with a knife. Combine 2 cups flour, ginger, baking soda, cinnamon, pepper, and salt. Beat margarine, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and brown sugar at medium speed of a mixer until light and fluffy. Add molasses, and beat 2 minutes. Add egg and egg white, and beat mixture until fluffy. Stir in the flour mixture until well-blended. Shape the dough into a ball with floured hands; add enough of remaining flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, to prevent dough from sticking. Wrap in plastic wrap; chill 1 hour.
2. Preheat oven to 375°.
3. Shape dough into 30 balls with floured hands. Roll balls in 1/4 cup granulated sugar; place 2 inches apart on baking sheets coated with cooking spray. Bake at 375° for 12 minutes. Immediately remove cookies from pans to a wire rack; cool completely.
